A beautiful home in a great location! This home features a large corner lot with a back deck that cascades to a patio that is made for outdoor dinners, fires and entertainment. A hundred new trees and shrubs were just planted to make this space feel even more magical. There is plenty of room to run around and plenty of trees to climb. The inside of this home is move-in ready with gleaming wood floors, a large great room with cathedral ceilings and skylights and includes a wood burning stove to provide a warm, cozy atmosphere for these cooler days to come. The kitchen has granite counters, wood cabinets and is open concept to the dining area. This home is drenched in afternoon sunlight. There are three bedrooms, two full baths and an extra room to spare for an office or workout room. The location is close to the Desert of Maine, Hedgehog Mountain, various walking trails and still close enough to town and all the amenities Freeport has to offer. Come see for yourself.
Impeccably maintained home in a wonderful Freeport neighborhood. The kitchen was updated in 2019 with new granite counters and new doors and drawer fronts on refurbished cabinets open to a large dining room with a wood-burning fireplace. An extra-spacious living room with a cathedral ceiling and exposed beams invites relaxation. The hardwood floors in all of these spaces as well as the hallway have just been refinished and look fantastic. Three bedrooms, two full baths, one with a tub/shower and one with a jetted tub, and an office as well! Both the boiler and the automatic generator run on natural gas. Replacement windows, a newer sliding glass door, and newly lined chimneys are a few of the home's improvements. And you'll love the large deck and patio that overlook the beautiful yard- perfect for outdoor entertaining. Conveniently located just 5 minutes from downtown Freeport and a quick 20 minute commute to Portland.
